Convicted "him of two counts of premeditated murder and three counts of attempted premeditated murder."

"The sentence will be the subject of an automatic appeal. If Akbar is executed, it would be by lethal injection."

May a thousand sex-starved Helen Thomases greet Akbar in his infernal destination.

Lethal Injection. (not my choice).

In my opinion hanging would be the appropriate method in a case such as this. It's not necessarily cruel if it's done properly, but it's ignominious, in keeping with the nature of the crime.

Two comments:

It seems as though his apology didn't work.

The Euro's and Kofi will be chiming in on the death penalty.

Hopefully, the death will come from a military firing squad.

No such luck.

The sentence will be the subject of an automatic appeal. If Akbar is executed, it would be by lethal injection.

Yeah, and it goes all the way up to the president for signature. But I think, I think, that in this case, we are eventually going to see an execution.

And it's a good thing.

I'm partial to the guillotine, for similar reasons.
